Aren't they called sunstrips? I had a silverstone one in an old car I had (in the 80's!)

This made me laugh:

Well it is very odd. With all things retro being a big thing these days i am amazed that i cannot find any info on them at all.

Totally bizarre. It is like the internet has wiped the existence of them in every form.

There may be a reason for that. a) they were incredibly naff at the time and b) haven't you heard, in todays society relationships don't last long enough for the visors to stick to the windscreen. May be "Darren" and "To Whom it may concern" - but it would have to be a wide windscreen.

That is very true, and they always were bloody awful things. No info or websites or pics online to refer to though is a bit weird as they were rather naffly iconic as fluffy dice

Surely Del-boy had one on his 3-wheeler didn't he ? Or am I miss-remembering.

That didn't take long! Searched for car sunstrips and top of the search was Demongraphics. They have sunstrips that you can add your own text to.

You purchased the roll of coloured film and letters separately ... Or so I'm told! I had one on my Austin 1100 GT saying "BRIGHTON FC"

Nice try, but i am looking for the retro versions. I think Tim Over Whelmed as solved this one though in terms of what needed to be purchased
